Barb, I've used Books from Cover to Cover with 5th and 6th graders with some success. I did not have to pay, however, the school district got them through MD ITV. I did not use all of them, only the ones which fit a literature lesson.When teaching a genre(Fantasy), I used "Castle in the attic" and many of the students checked out copies. You need to explain first about the format (a man drawing scenes from the book while he tells part of the story) and secondly, that they will not hear the end of the story, they will have to read the book. Some of the books presented are better than others, so you may not want them all. Nina Wells Northern Middle School Hagerstown, MD 21742 nwells@umd5.umd.edu
